BioXML

I'm looking for a good excuse to learn about bioinformatics, on my work time. I need to find information on where XML is used in bioinfo, and where it could be used but isn't because of size/speed/other problems.

Problem is, there's a lot to look at and I don't know where to turn to. So if you have any pointers, they'd be much appreciated. Give me a year and I'll make XML boldly go everywhere it was too verbose before;)

Unfortunately, the bioxml.org site appears to have been retired. You might want to start with BioDAS [biodas.org] (web services + Lincoln Stein = genomic goodness!) and this project list [visualgenomics.ca].
